Help!

So today when I got home from work. I discovered my new Bumble bee laying on her back!? Ive done some research and lots of people said it sometimes happens to gravid females. But naturally I thought she had passed so I picked her up and nothing was physically wrong with her from what I saw. Ive had her 4 weeks shed and ate all 4 of those weeks sometimes struggles with her sheds but we always fight through it. Can anyone give me a little advice of this has happened to you? Thank you.

How many times has she shed in four weeks?

Sometimes Ball Pythons that carry the Spider gene likes your Bumble Bee, will do strange things and move in awkward ways. It's referred to as wobble, or being dingy. It's part of their charm.

Hmmm... Have you heard of stargazing?
Try Googling it or searching on this forum. It's a neurological condition, I believe. Sorry that I don't have more info on it.

Best of luck!

Guess I don't see what star gazing has to do with a BP laying on it's back. What's the connection I'm missing?

Shes shed after every meal she has had.

It sounds like you're saying your snake sheds every week. How long have you had her, and how often do you feed her? Im not trying to be a pain, I'm asking questions to try and eliminate any communication miscues.

It was just an idea. I know that corns (although different species) do some strange things when they are stargazers. They can't keep themselves upright sometimes - and end up on their backs, I believe, from what I have read from some who have corns that are stargazers - especially if it is serious.
But like I said, I don't know much about it otherwise. Just trying to help
